Wisconsin-based bluegrass band known for their dynamic musicality, thorough arrangements, and true-to-life songwriting and for captivating audiences with thoughtful, energetic performances. Americana Highways writes “These musicians must enjoy what they do because their joy translates through their instruments. The energy, fingering techniques are all proponents that deliver substance with a modicum of joy. There aren’t any low points, missteps, loss of heat in any of these melodies.” Chicken Wire Empire has partnered with dozens of artists from all corners of the bluegrass genre, from Sam Bush and Peter Rowan to Vince Herman and Keller Williams. Their forthcoming album features guest appearances from Grammy-winning artists Jerry Douglas and Kyle Tuttle. Special advance discounted tickets, $20, available only directly from the box office at 207-633-5159. Regular tickets $25.

“A Lucinda Williams for Gen X’ers” says NPR. Garrison Starr is the quintessential musical triple-threat, singer, songwriter, Grammy-nominated record producer, and her soon-to-be-released latest full-length album, Garrison Starr and The Gospel Truth reveals her at the height of her powers. Starr is a celebrated singer of such remarkable reputation that music icons go out of their way to praise her. Glen Phillips declares, “Garrison’s voice goes straight to the gut. She reminds you of what it means to be human.” Mary Chapin Carpenter adds, “She just writes and sings her heart out. In the American Idolized landscape that constitutes today’s music business, she is someone to be thankful for.” Her frequent collaborations with other artists have been both in the studio and on stage – Starr has toured with the likes of Steve Earle, Emmylou Harris, Bruce Cockburn, Patty Griffin, Mindy Smith, Glen Phillips, and The Indigo Girls, to name a few, logging hundreds of thousands of touring miles across the country and around the world. Opening act Nini Camps. Americana singer-songwriter Nini Camps is known for her emotionally rich songwriting, cinematic sound, and raw, unmistakable voice. Her songs have been featured in hundreds of television shows and films including Grey’s Anatomy, Station 19, All American, and more, making her a favorite among music supervisors for songs that blend honesty, depth, and heart. She is the longtime lead singer of the internationally touring band Antigone Rising, Advance discounted tickets are $20, available only directly from the Box Office at 207-633-5158. Regular tickets are $25, available online at day of show.
